The lightest, best climbing, best descending, all-around fastest dual-suspension XC race bike ever made — for women with a need for speed. The carbon frame and oversize bottom bracket on the Scalpel-Si come into their own when you need to step on the gas. Fly through rooty trail sections with 100mm of RockShox Monarch XX travel in the rear, while Cannondale's 100mm-travel Lefty 2.0 carbon fork chews through chop to keep you on your line. With HollowGram 23 Superlight carbon wheels and tubeless-ready Schwalbe tires, you'll rip descents and climb like a goat. To throw you up those hills, SRAM’s 12-speed X01 Eagle drivetrain flaunts a huge 10-50 cassette and the precise shifting you expect from SRAM. Shimano XT brakes keep things in check with power to spare and single-finger modulation. Cannondale’s own carbon handlebar, stem, and carbon seatpost with a Fi'zi:k Arione Donna saddle ensure lightweight, comfortable contact points whether it’s an after work power hour or an all day race.
